"Every American who believes that no man or woman is above the law" needs to have their head examined. Laws don't apply to Fed politicians.

Only Steven Segal is above the law

I love me some Al Franken.

There's no way to win. If the guy is left in place, he's "conspiring with the Russians." if he's fired, we get posts like this.... Catch-22
jetzullo
Yes the lack of any fault on that administration is astounding.
SmellingThePsychosphere
Heh. You should've heard Al railing against Comey six months ago. But NOW, of course...
jmrex
Disingenuous POS. He didn't support Comey doing the investigation in the first place.

Franken is a failed stand up comedian fyi. Minnesota facts
AnonymousBach
But those of us who know there's a law for the rich and well connected and another law for those who are not are not even really surprised.

I'm just waiting to see what happens. Innocent until proven guilty by social media is what it should read now I guess.

My favorite part of this is that Trump fans still find a way to blame Hillary even for this!

You believe a politician? Your funny.

Lol, Al Franken
Toddandthebookofpureevil
Lol, Ronald Reagan.. WTF are you on about?

Funny, his colleague Maxine Waters suggested Hillary should have done the very same thing had she been elected.
drj37
And probably would have due to his last minute decision to reopen her investigation. (which she still blames for her loss)
The damage control is hysterical.

Love my senator!!!!

That's terrifying. And plausible.

Solid bet. Won't take it.

is Hillary's method of accidents and forced suicide better?

Shut the fuck up, idiot. How gullible are you?
PresidentDonaldJTrump
You'd be surprised
Thunderdome08
Kind of like when comey's old boss was on bills plane right before he didn't investigate Hillary further. All of DC is corrupt
Crazyname
And don't forget Bill Clinton fired his FBI Director as well. Which is to say there is a precedent. Also that led to the Pres. being impeach
Magnenima
Similar outcome, stark contrast in circumstances
RisingPhoenix92
Uh that director was under investigation himself for ethical concerns.
kiddub
All the dems thought coney was a disgrace for releasing the Clinton letter. His answers in front of committee protected his interests.
Everyone should remain vigilant to ensure the Russian investigation continues but this guy wasn't good at his job.
RegisteredBoobInspector
I had no idea this guy is a senator. I guess he was good enough, smart enough; and doggonnit, people like him.
justvenomcake
Okay I hate playing devils advocate and I'm probably ill informed, but what definitive evidence has there been on the links?
I'm genuinely curious.

Doggone it I'm smart enough..and people like me

holy shit, so that was pat? that character really was well done.
It was Pat. I can't tell if he's more believable as a sketch character or a politician. #libertarian :P

For the love of...the guy investigating the Russian election affected the election by releasing a statement about the Russian election.
Russian election tampering
He's just not good at his job.
Imtoooldforthat
Ok, I'm 60 years old, registered Republican, and I have voted "mostly" Republican since 1976. What just happened with this President scares
me more than Nixon.

As an IT guy: Thank you for disproving the argument 90% of my coworkers give me that they're too old to figure out a computer.
For our kids, we would have seriously hamstrung them if we didn't
In the 80s I convinced my wife that we needed to get a computer for the kii
Damngoodstuff
While there may be some truth to this, I f*ckn hate Al Franken.
vonkeswick
Why? I don't know anything about him so I'm just curious
picturelord
I though Comey cost Hillary the election?
Sheprador
Correct. Trump was REALLY into him back when he was investigating HRC.
SleeperXib
What is the relevance of that popular claim?
[deleted]
They know he fired him because it would derail the investigation
The reason they're mad is the suspicious timing of the firing and the laughable reason cited. Not the firing itself.
Hazards of actually doing your job in DC I guess.
lisalombs
Have you not seen multiple Democrats literally say "I do not support Trump firing Comey but I would if Hillary did it in his position"?
Link goes to RCP: https://tinyurl.com/mjgouuz
I have not, but would consider that as exactly as bad as people making up excuses for Trump. Party shouldn't matter in an investigation
Actually, it's technically worse because that's creating a situation before claiming it's okay.
Well that's the relevance. Comey truly deserved to go, but Democrats want this to be about Russia so badly they're being blatant hypocrites.
Had he been fired right as Trump was coming into office, would anybody have raised an eyebrow?
In what way is this hypocritical?
